The real problem is that companies make a significant difference between their speech and their acts : they release components said to be “linux friendly” and noone can find nowhere one little line of code for these… They try to impose a pure “closed source rule” in an open world… they choosed to break established rules to make money… why not ? Any of us can choose to approve their step and buy their “driver” or choose not to. They act as a kind of leech on the back of Linux/GNU/Opensource/BSD/Others communities… The real problem is not Linuxant approach.
#LINKSYS WIRELESS G DRIVERS REGISTRATION#
After a registration form and a "Free trial" key. And tonight i receive a email from David ( many thanks guy !! ) saying " use linuxant driver". So I decided to post a mail to friends at .org which i have talk about Wifi before.

( you can check out the GPL center on linksys website you will found the firmwares )
#LINKSYS WIRELESS G DRIVERS DRIVER#
This morning ( after a long night chatting on irc ) I decide to write a mail to And guess why: "We are working on the driver for linux. So I went to #linux on freenode and they all say the same. Using windows only for bridging wifi is a bit expensive for me. So I tried it out on another host w/ windows and works fine. give it a try on this nice old Asus P2B which I use as gateway. ) as Linksys seem to support Linux ( I found a big GPL center on their website ).Īfter 2 weeks ( my f**king webstore is sloww ), I received it. So I have bought a Linksys WMP54G ( at the time i do this I haven’t noticed that it isn’t supported by madwifi. And this is impossible cause most of them aren’t sell in France. ) and decide to purchase a D-Link or a Linksys, Atheros based card. So I went to my webstore ( not a really good one. After a little of investigation I discover that this driver seems to work quite nicely ( I managed to build it and so on.
I have found that only the cards based on Atheros Chipset are support by the driver. After searching a while on the net to find a 802.11g card supported by Linux.
